How a annaprashan date is chosen
- Nakshatra: Ashwini, Rohini, Mrigashira, Punarvasu, Pushya, the three Uttaras, Hasta, Chitra, Swati, Anuradha, Shravana, Dhanishtha, Shatabhisha or Revati.
- Tithi: Dwitiya, Tritiya, Panchami, Saptami, Dashami or Trayodashi.
- Weekday: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday; daytime, ideally before noon.
- Not on Sankranti or an eclipse day, and without harsh yogas or Vishti karana.
Before you fix the date
- Choose a date in the right month of the baby’s age first, then the window.
- A short Annaprashan puja at home takes about an hour.
- Check Rahu Kalam and the day’s panchang for your city before the exact time.
Frequently asked questions
How are these annaprashan dates calculated?
From the positions of the Sun and Moon for each day (Lahiri ayanamsa), applying the rules of Muhurta Chintamani: nakshatra: ashwini, rohini, mrigashira, punarvasu, pushya, the three uttaras, hasta, chitra, swati, anuradha, shravana, dhanishtha, shatabhisha or revati, and the other conditions listed on this page. Our calculation uses the same engine as our panchang, which matches Drik Panchang to the minute.
Do the timings change with my city?
Slightly. A muhurat starts or ends when the tithi or nakshatra changes, which happens at the same moment everywhere, or at sunrise, which differs by city. Times here are IST for New Delhi; check the sunrise for your city on our Panchang and your pandit will confirm.
Is a date enough, or do I need a lagna too?
These are panchang shuddhi dates — the day and window are clean. For marriage, griha pravesh and upanayanam the pandit also picks a lagna (rising sign) inside the window that suits the family’s horoscopes.
Can Rutviju send a pandit for Annaprashana on the muhurat?
Yes. Book Annaprashana for the date and time; a verified pandit comes to your home with the vidhi and samagri list, at the price shown before you pay. You can also ask us on WhatsApp.
